March 03, 2025 (MLN): JS Bank Limited (PSX: JSBL) posted a consolidated profit of Rs13.36 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024, reflecting a 28.75% increase from Rs10.37bn recorded in the previous year.

However, the earnings per share (EPS) declined by 16.17% to Rs5.03 from Rs6.

The bank’s profit growth was driven by an 87.18% surge in net mark-up/interest income, which reached Rs73.96bn compared to Rs39.51bn last year.

This increase was supported by a 67.76% rise in mark-up/interest earned, amounting to Rs221.45bn.

Meanwhile, non-markup income also contributed, rising by 23.34% to Rs16.28bn, mainly due to a 288.64% increase in gains on securities.

On the expense side, non-markup expenses grew significantly by 66.19% to Rs52.15bn, driven by a 65.81% rise in operating expenses and a 99.42% jump in the Workers' Welfare Fund contributions.

The bank also recorded a 23.15% increase in credit loss allowances, amounting to Rs7.41bn.

Taxation expenses more than doubled, increasing by 108.63% to Rs17.31bn, which impacted the overall profitability.

The bank’s profit before tax stood at Rs30.68bn, up 64.25% year-on-year.

A notable rise was seen in the contribution from non-controlling interest, which surged by 232.98% to Rs3.05bn.

Meanwhile, profit attributable to equity holders of the bank increased modestly by 8.97% to Rs10.30bn.
